New Dungeness Light House is located at the tip of the 5 1/2 mile long Dungeness Spit. If you want to walk all the way out to the lighthouse, you need to check when it’s low tide. We only walked about halfway to the lighthouse.
We decided to head to East Sookie Park on Vancouver Island, Even though we had a GPS, it was hard to find the park. We ended up stopping at a marina and buying a map. Luckily they had a coffee shop there.
The Park is beautiful and you can walk along the water for miles

Point Wilson Lighthouse. It was hard to get a good photo since they have a fence around the lighthouse

Captain Spencer positioned the boat so we could all get some shots of the lighthouse with Mt. Baker in the background

Hooper Straight Lighthouse at the Chesapeake Maritime Museum in St Michaels
The Hooper Strait Lighthouse, now standing on Navy Point, was originally built in 1879 to light the way for boats passing through the shallow, dangerous shoals of Hooper Strait, a thoroughfare for boats bound from the Chesapeake Bay across Tangier Sound to Deals Island or places along the Nanticoke and Wicomico Rivers. As a “screwpile” lighthouse, it is built on special iron pilings which were tipped with a screw that could be turned into the muddy bottom for a depth of 10 feet or more. The Museum’s lighthouse is the second lighthouse constructed at Hooper Strait – the first one was destroyed by ice in 1877.

This is the Hudson – Athens Lighthouse. I have driven by it so many times and several years ago my brother in law and I actually got to see the inside. Volunteers take you out to the lighthouse on Saturdays during the summer.

Lazy Day today. We did go for a walk but did not see anything that inspired me and then when we got home I got engrossed in the latest Iris Johanssen book so decided to use a picture from Monday since I had several good ones to choose from.
the Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse was originally built in 1855, with its pilings screwed into a shoal at the mouth of the Patapsco River, this lighthouse safely guided merchant and passenger ships into the Inner Harbor for over 100 years.
Removed from the Patapsco in 1988, the lighthouse was carried by barge to Pier 5 where is has been a free museum ever since.
